Falcons owner responds to Kirk Cousins tampering allegations

The greatest buzz point this summer was what the Falcons would do at quarterback, and Terry Fontenot reacted by handing Kirk Cousins a $180 million contract over four years.

Atlanta’s general manager went above and above in every aspect of the deal, thanks to Arthur Blank’s backing. The Vikings were unwilling to follow the Falcons’ lead in terms of years, guarantees, and average yearly value

The Falcons wanted Kirk Cousins, and they made it clear. However, the honeymoon stage did not last long. During Cousins’ initial news conference at Flowery Branch, the veteran revealed that Kyle Pitts had recruited him weeks before the legal tampering period, and he had spoken with other team members.

“There are great people here,” Cousins stated. “But it’s not only the football squad. I mean, I am looking at the support workers. Yesterday, we met, called our head sports trainer, and spoke with our head of public relations. I think we’ve got some nice folks here. And that is fantastic to be a part of.

Mike Florio, a noted Vikings supporter, went so far as to label it the most obvious example of tampering he’s ever seen. Well, Falcons owner Arthur Blank had his chance to defend his team and new quarterback.
